Congressman Shri Thanedar Statement on Firing of Attorney General Pam Bondi

April 02, 2026 Congressman Shri Thanedar Statement on Firing of Attorney General Pam Bondi Washington, DC - Today, Congressman Shri Thanedar (MI-13) issued the following statement following Trump’s firing of Attorney General Pam Bondi. “Pam Bondi will go down in history as the Attorney General who protected pedophiles and weaponized the DOJ instead of fighting for justice. She should’ve been removed months ago for the crimes she’s committed, the complete mishandling of the Epstein files, and the harm she caused the victims. I introduced articles of impeachment against her last month for not releasing the Epstein files, dereliction of duty and obstruction of justice, and weaponization and politicization of the Department of Justice. Bondi being ousted as attorney general does not erase that record. She must be held accountable for the harm she has done. Given the failure in Iran and the repeated endangerment of U.S. servicemembers, Pete Hegseth should be the next to go.” Congressman Shri Thanedar proudly represents Michigan's 13th Congressional District, which includes Detroit, Downriver, and the Grosse Pointes. As a champion for working families, Shri is committed to advancing economic opportunities, education, healthcare access, and entrepreneurship for underserved communities. Drawing from his journey from poverty to success, he works tirelessly to uplift Metro Detroit, ensuring every resident has the resources and support they need to thrive. ### Print Email Share Tweet
